Accidents and illnesses are part of the injuries mostly covered in the employee compensation claims as result of the exposure of the individual to the work related activities, materials or equipment. The injured employee, in most cases, are required to quickly file for the claims within a stipulated number of days as stated in their employment acts.
However, when the employee gets injured within the premises while he or she engages in other unsafe acts or from another fellow employee, such are not usually covered in the compensation benefits claims.
